^^^^^^^  :sad1:

Robin, looks like the hunt is on for a co-driver!  :happy2:


....No co-driver - Just a passenger. Well, even that is uncertain because I might drive on to Geneva and come back to UK later.

What's all this "I'm not driving around it" BS?

It's a road, the traffic only goes in 1 direction and so long as you keep your eyes on your mirrors and understand the etiquette you can't go wrong. What makes anyone think that just because it is the the 'Ring you're going to automatically stuff it??

Go. Softly soak it up and drive it without worrying about times or other drivers. Just enjoy one of the greatest roads in the world, before H&S finally shut it down.
Sideways yo!

My missus did a lap last monday afternoon in very heavy and fast traffic, bit hairy as first but by Adenauer Forst she was dodging GT3's like a champ, don't get beaten by a girl... lol  :laugh:

I'll be at the ring on Friday 19th as it happens... perhaps I'll see some of you there.

....Instead of making it a "perhaps", why don't you PM Nathan (Greenouse) with your mobile #. It's always good to be able to put faces to forum names (providing you can remember them all!)

Good point RR.

We'll be there with 4 dutch registered cars - a mid metallic silver Mini Cooper S with the Works bodykit, A united grey 5 door Golf V GTI on Monza 2s, my black one and (ahem) a metallic burgundy Volvo S40 T5 ...

Looking quite likely for me to join the trip but I need to some new AP discs in time! Am working on it now.

Oh, just a note.

If you're coming back via the E40 to the ferry ports/chunnel, there's roadworks on the French/Belgian border Southbound and they're horrific. Save a bit of extra time to get through them, like 2 hours maybe.
Sideways yo!
